We have still another sad edition of the NNHS Newsletter this
early Friday morning.
Lewis Beazlie,
Class of February 1945, passed away
in Cleveland, Ohio on Monday, February 13, 2012, sixteen days before his 83rd
birthday (discounting the Leap Year Day factor).

Thank you so much for clarifying
that, Fred. I thought when I was
unable to locate him in the June 1945 or either the February or June
1944 Beacons, he must surely have been in the February 1945
(which is not in my possession), but I didn't want to state that for a
fact until I heard from you.

Fromthe Daily Press - 02/13/12:

Lewis H. Beazlie, Jr.

YORKTOWN - Lewis
Henry Beazlie Jr., 83 years old, was a lifelong resident of Tidewater Virginia,
most recently residing in the Yorktown area. Lewis passed away on Monday, Feb.
13, 2012, at the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center. His death occurred as
a result of complications related to chronic illness.

He is predeceased by his father, Lewis Henry Beazlie Sr.; his mother, Alberta
Van Houten Beazlie; and his sister, Elinor Beazlie Hunt.

Lewis was born on Feb. 29, 1928,
in Newport News, Va. Lewis graduated from Newport News High School. He went onto
attend Augusta Military Academy, and then Virginia Military Institute, Class of
1951. Lewis was employed for many years as a marine designer at the Newport News
Shipbuilding and Dry-dock Co., and completed his career, retiring in 1990 from
John J. McMullen & Associates, Inc.

Lewis and Beverly began their family in Newport News, Va. As their family grew,
in 1968 they moved to Williamsburg, Va. They remained residents of Williamsburg
until 1996 when they moved to the Grafton area of Yorktown, Va., immediately,
prior to Lewis's death, they relocated to Akron, Ohio, where Beverly plans to
remain.

Lewis is to be cremated and will then return to Williamsburg, Va. A memorial
service is planned for 2 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 18, 2012. It will be held at St.
Martin's Episcopal Church, 1333 Jamestown Road, Williamsburg, Va. The service
will be followed by a brief reception in the church's Miles Hall. Interment will
be held privately.

In lieu of flowers, a token of your remembrance of Lewis may be made to the York
County Department of Fire and Life Safety, PO Box 532, Yorktown VA 23690. View and post condolences
on our online guestbook at
dailypress.com/guestbooks.

I am very saddened to learn
of Lew's passing. We worked
together for a number of
years at John McMullen and
Associates and spent time
together working on several
projects, one of which was
the development of a new
heavy lift boom system for
the Navy's new ARS-50
salvage vessels. We also
volunteered to go to Canada
to help the Canadians
develop a new class of
frigates in the mid eighties
and enjoyed each other's
company, both at work and
socially with our new
Canadian friends. Lew was a
very intelligent, articulate
and pleasant person to be
around. He was also very
humorous and we enjoyed many
good times together. Over
the years we stayed in
contact with each other
which was a testament to our
great friendship. My sincere
condolences go out to
Beverly and the rest of the
family at this time.

I pray for the
strength and
comfort that can
only come from
our Heavenly
Father.

Dear Aunt Beverly,
Wanted to let you know how sorry we are for your husband's passing. Curt would love to be there, but he had surgery yesterday and is unable to travel today. Curt wishes so much to be there to be a support for the family, know that he is there in thoughts and prayers and may his presence be felt. I hope that you will be comfortable in Ohio, very cold, but know that your family must be there and for that we are thankful for family support and presence. I did not know Uncle Lewis well, but know he must have been a good man to be with you and to love you and we surely know he will be missed and not forgotten. His memory will live on in all of you. God bless you all and wish we could be there.
Love,

My deepest
sympathy goes out to each of you in this difficult time. I will be sending
prayers of strength to each of you as you reflect on the wonderful memories
of your father and his life.
God Bless.
